Howdy,

I've started using DHCPD, and noticed that the lease file is not 
"cleaned",
What I mean is, if some cliente request IP, and get .....11, and after 
two days/another time request again after the lease time ends, and the 
......11 is already in someone else, it will get a new IP, so far so 
good.
But the lease file stays with the information about the old lease, 
aswell the new one.

No way to make it have only the new lease for that MACADDRR? for example 
like it does the MSWindows DHCPD.
I've been searching docs and did not found any information about it, but 
did found people exposing extra large dhcpd.leases file (+1GB), aswell 
others saying that their dhcpd.leases file dont have more than 50 or 
100kb

Thanks in advanced,
